Pretty sure they've already announced Nora's casting.
>>
>>78022063
They did.
Retards will be retards
>>
>>78021159
This could just be set up like his silver age origin where he was just a villain with a freeze ray. Later on his freeze ray malfunctioned on him and that's what ended up being the cause of his peculiar condition.
>>
>>78020786
My problem with live action adaptations of comics and stuff is they don't try hard enough on the costumes to make them look similar or nod back to the way the characters looked in the comics.
Often times they just pick up articles from their closet and slap them onto someone and call it a day.
Just look at this fucker.
>>
>>78022204
He WOULD'T be wearing armor yet. The accident hasn't occured yet.
>>
>>78022191
Nope, Nora is cast and it's mentioned that he's looking for a way to freeze her.
The gun is probably him testing it out.
>>
>>78022222
Could be a combination of both origins then. He's looking for a way to freeze her, then the gun malfunctions on him making him more in line with the other mister freezes that we've come to know.

The goggle glasses are meant to be a stylized attempt at his red glasses. Most likely because they are also introducing Hugo Strange and don't want one just to be wearing a red lensed version of the others glasses.
>>
>>78022241
I could see that happening, I hope not though. I think Nora being frozen at the end of the season is enough of a cathartic moment.

>>78022249
He's perfect
>>
>>78022258
How about this then, the gun, being a prototype, is pushed to it's limits causing it to overload and in the process, freezes Nora and gives Victor his disability?
>>
>>78022277
How about he freezes her and saves her life by that much, and then that's when whatever goons are after him causes his accident?
>>
>>78021942
Nigger all he's had is one good story. And I guess one episode in Batman Beyond which barely counts.

It is better to have one good story and a reason to commit crimes than to have none of either, like the versions of Freeze before the DCAU and after FP.

That story was good enough that they put him in the movies pretty soon after. Both live-action and animated.

The problem with Freeze is that he has one story. And there's nothing else you can do with him.

Remember when Nora Freeze was a Lava Monster?

No, they say, "WELL, REAL PEOPLE WOULDN'T WEAR SPANDEX XD" And then dress them up like a radioactive hipster.

Freeze wants revenge and to cure his wife. The first is basically Heart of Ice and that can run thin, but curing his wife needs money or tech or to work for someone who has the first two. "Getting money" covers an almost infinite range of story lines. Plenty of Batman rogues have fewer inherent story hooks.

Taking Nora away adds nothing to the character. You might as well make Harley completely unconnected to the Joker or remove Ivy's connection to plant life.

>>78025017
The problem comes when he finally does have enough money and yet continues to do this shit.
>>
>>78025017

Yes, but there's no reason for him why the Wayne Foundation just can't give him a million dollars or store Nora in a safe place.

The only reason for Freeze to do anything is that Batman is a dick who beats up a grieving widower. And it's OOC for Freeze to team up with villains who kill people or hurt other people, since he's not really a villain.

Nora-Waifu makes more sense since he's pining for the idea of a thing.
>>
>>78025017
When Paul Dini reintroduced him to the DCU, he had him accidentally kill his wife in a fight against Batman right away so his thing could become "revenge against Batman"

Obviously he gets caught or has spent his money on a failed effort. Nora is a money pit with no bottom.

>>78025054
That happened in the nu52. Batman literally knocked Nora's cure out of Freeze's hand because she was just his waifu.

>>78025058
How long did that stick?
>>
>>78025103

I thought Nu52 Nora was a woman who was frozen decades ago and Frieze did his doctorate on her and then started believing she was his waifu.
>>
Oh look, it's a DCAU fag thread.

>>78025054
Victor might have started with good intentions but after he's murdered more than a few innocent of people it means jackshit, he's still a dangerous, erratic criminal who does nothing to earn special privileges.
>>
>>78025138
Right, she wasn't actually married to Freeze, so Batman would not let her get cured by him.
>>
>>78025103
Well he was brought back during Underworld Unleashed in the mid 90s (since he had actually been killed in the early 90s by the Joker) and the lazarus pit lava monster story happened in the mid 00s, so about a decade?
>>
>>78025169
Wasn't she alive but frozen when she became a lava monster? I may have missed the subtle difference between those two states when reading that comic.
>>
>>78025190
Frozen and dead. The reason why the the pit turned her into a lava monster was because she had been dead and in a bunch of pieces iced together.
>>
Theres no point in bitching about Gotham anymore, its practically an elseworlds story where fuck all can happen.

There's a reason Batman: The Animated series is considered one of the best cartoons of all time.

One of those reasons is that they took a generic cold themed villain and made an award winning episode out of his origin story.
